She says the movie looks dumb; you suddenly agree. She tests you with a little attitude; you apologize for nothing.
You think you're being easy to get along with. She reads something else entirely: a man with no edges. Nothing to hold on to. No friction, no tension, no reason to wonder what he really thinks.
The "22 Rules" taught me to push back — playfully, calmly, without needing her approval. Strange things happened after that.
Dinner ran three hours. She laughed at everything. You walked her to her car thinking this one's locked in.
Then: nothing. Two texts. No reply. What happened?
You did what most men do on a great date. You filled every silence, answered every question, and left her with nothing to wonder about. No mystery. Nothing to sit with when she got home.
Rule 3 of the "22 Rules" changes the ending: tell her a little, hold back the rest, and let her imagination do the chasing. The ghosting stops too.
0:40-0:48 Whatever problems exist within "The System" at present (The absence of shared parenting legislation disproportionately affects men. Childcare being tough to access in many parts of The Anglosphere makes life more complicated for working women and their husband's alike. The list could go on), the fundamentals of human existence haven't changed... Stop making your own self-care a priority, and the obvious consequences will befall you. Everyone from your lovers, colleagues, and acquaintes will begin to vanish. Why? Because miserable people are contagious
Yup, this does happen.
I could talk to any woman I wasn't attracted to. Charming, funny, relaxed. Then a gorgeous woman looked my way and I'd become a sweating, babbling mess.
The fix took me years to find and ten minutes to learn. Nervousness and excitement are the same physical state — pounding heart, adrenaline, flushed face. Your brain just picks the label. And you can pick a better one.
Rule 16 shows you how. You feel the nerves, relabel them as excitement, and let that energy pour out as enthusiasm. Women notice the guy radiating it. They always do.
Finding women who engage in regular self-reflection, and who cultivate their minds with material such asEven though the cat’s out of the bag, men aren’t going to put women in line any time soon.
Considering the aims of most on this board, I’ve often wondered why anyone wants good behavior from women
Women are born savage and most are inherently not marriage material. They need to be raised right and their behavior policed by family and society to be so as was historically done. Otherwise you get the sh-t in the videos the OP routinely posts.Finding women who engage in regular self-reflection, and who cultivate their minds with material such as(Especially everything said between 15:00-17:35 22:00-23:12 24:20-24:50 33:48-34:25) , rather than getting their entire perspective from Julia Fox's podcast, drastically reduces the level of melodrama a man invites into his existence, right off the bat
Yeah, one has to hunt around for high-quality women like these, just as one has to hunt around for well-paying employers who treat their workers respectfully, nutritious food, etc etc. Such is life
They're human beings, in other words. When behaviors like being well-groomed/Not leaving the house looking like a ragamuffinThey need to be raised right and their behavior policed by family and society...
Does that go for telling daughters not to leave the house with their vulvas showing?Not leaving the house looking like a ragamuffin
You asked her if she wanted to grab coffee. Then you asked if the time worked. Then you asked if the place was okay. Then you asked if she'd prefer tea.
Four questions. Four chances for her to say no. Four signals that you're terrified of making a decision.
Plan it. Pick the place. Pick the time. Tell her where to meet you. She'll either show up or she won't.
Either way, you look like a man instead of a scared little boy.
If she isn't having and initiating sex regularly when married chances are this is true.Unfortunately very true. So many guys don't understand that just because she's married to you it doesn't mean she's attracted to you.

Is there a recourse for men who want to get married and start a family? Got any tips?So many guys don't understand that just because she's married to you it doesn't mean she's attracted to you.
Yep, along with reminding their/our sons that walking around with their asses and underwear hanging out, despite the fact they're wearing jeans or slacks + Speaking exclusively in either ebonics or Internet jargon reflects poorly on MEN as a classDoes that go for telling daughters not to leave the house with their vulvas showing?
Always make sure that she has high genuine attraction to you and get an enforceable prenuptial. Always do your due diligence with a woman.Is there a recourse for men who want to get married and start a family? Got any tips?
Three seconds. That's how long it took. Your shoes. Your posture. The way you held your drink. Whether you looked at the floor or looked at her.
She already filed you away. Interesting. Boring. Safe. Bold. Before you even opened your mouth.
Everything you say after that is just her confirming what she already decided.
So stop rehearsing lines. Fix the first three seconds. Stand tall. Look up. Smile like you mean it. Walk like you belong wherever you're standing.
The words come later. The impression comes first.
Absolutely!!! Undesirable and asinine as MeToo was, women didn't/haven't stop drenching themselves over 50 Shades, 365 Days, and the like. If anything, heterosexual chicks are MORE hungry for male assertiveness and leadership than usualThat means this is the best time to be a DJ
Sex diminishes greatly after getting married (ask almost any married guy) and in many cases comes to a grinding halt (15-20% of all marriages are sexless). Other people quit taking care of themselves or even caring because "I'm married, what does it matter." It's a strong sign someone is cheating if they suddenly start really caring about appearance again.Even just getting married doesn't mean much.

Could there be a connection between folks not looking after themselves once married and so many unions becoming sexless? This is a greater mystery than a question such as: "Does colonialism bear some(Though certainly not all)responsibility fot the so-called 3rd World being a violent, repressive shi-hole today?"Sex diminishes greatly after getting married (ask almost any married guy) and in many cases comes to a grinding halt (15-20% of all marriages are sexless).
